Llopart Llegat Familiar Brut Nature 2011
Descripción
Llegat Familiar está concebido como un sincero tributo a los antecesores de esta casa y un testimonio del tiempo y el paisaje del Penedès. Este espumoso con sello Corpinnat nace en La Viña de Paulino, una parcela de cepas de Xarel·lo de 1935 plantadas sobre margas miocenas y suelos calcáreos que otorgan al fruto una concentración y mineralidad portentosas. Tras una prodigiosa crianza de más de 12 años sobre sus lías y un minucioso trabajo artesanal que incluye el tradicional coup de poignée (agitado de botellas) cada cuatro años, nos encontramos ante una edición de colección limitada. Un vino sublime, maduro y de vocación eterna que eleva la viticultura catalana a lo más alto.

Opinión de los críticos
A complex nose of pastry, intertwined with grapefruit zest and a hint of jasmine. The medium- to full-bodied palate is concentrated and creamy, with elegant, persistent flavors and a saline note that adds depth to the long, silky finish. Aged 144 months on the lees. From a single 1935 xarel-lo vineyard with limestone soils. Drink or hold.
The 2011 Llegat Familiar was produced with grapes from a Xarel.lo vineyard, La Viña de Paulino, planted in 1935. 2011 was a warm vintage but with good rain. The grapes were hand harvested, and the free-run juice was left to ferment in stainless steel and then was refermented in bottle. This was disgorged after more than 13 years in bottle with the lees. It's serious, clean and balanced, a very traditional expression of the grapes and place. It has 11.3% alcohol and a pH of 3.02, and a bone-dry finish. It has complexity and nuance. but I was not blown away. Only 1,332 bottles were produced, but 270 of them were kept for the family reserve. It was disgorged in June 2025.
Llopart's Llegat Familiar, from a single parcel of 80 year old Xarel-lo on calcareous soils
has rapidly ascended to the heights of Penedès small band of exceptional long-aged Xarello.
It's a formidable wine of electric focus and drive, with a beautifully controlled ageing
character that stops well short of anything obvious. Jasmine and floral honey meet salty lime
and grapefruit in a palate with endlessly accelerating energy and drive, all held in beautiful
subtlety and transparency without a step out of place. It's a terrific achievement. 2025-2030
